Script compile errors with following hack & slash tutorial

system · May 9, 2011, 12:53am

I have following the Berzerg hack & slash tutorials, (think they're very informative for beginners like me), but I've come across errors that I can't seem to fix. I've been through the videos a couple of times but can't find the problem, can anyone help? Here's my Base Character class script:

using UnityEngine; using System.Collections; using System; //added to access the enum class

public class BaseCharacter : MonoBehaviour { private string _name; private int _level; private uint _freeExp;

private Attribute[] _primaryAttribute;
private Vital[] _vital;
private Skill[] _skill;

public void Awake() {
    _name = string.Empty;
    _level = 0;
    _freeExp = 0;

    _primaryAttribute = new Attribute[Enum.GetValues(typeof(AttributeName)).Length];
    _vital = new Vital[Enum.GetValues(typeof(VitalName)).Length];
    _skill = new Skill[Enum.GetValues(typeof(SkillName)).Length];

    SetupPrimaryAttributes();
    SetupVitals();
    SetupSkills();
}

public string Name {
    get{ return _name; }
    set{ _name = value; }
}

public int Level {
    get{ return _level; }
    set{ _level = value; }
}

public uint FreeExp {
    get{ return _freeExp; }
    set{ _freeExp = value; }
}

public void AddExp(uint exp) {
    _freeExp += exp;

    CalculateLevel();
}
//take avg of all of the players skills and assign that on the player level
public void CalculateLevel() {

}

private void SetupPrimaryAttributes() {
    for(int cnt = 0; cnt < _primaryAttribute.Length; cnt++) {
        _primaryAttribute[cnt] = new Attribute();
    }
}

private void SetupVitals() {
    for(int cnt = 0; cnt < _vital.Length; cnt++) {
        _vital[cnt] = new Vital();
}

}

private void SetupSkills() {
    for(int cnt = 0; cnt < _skill.Length; cnt++) {
        _skill[cnt] = new Skill();
}

}

public Attribute GetPrimaryAttribute(int index) {
    return _primaryAttribute[index];
}

public Vital GetVital(int index) {
    return _vital[index];
}

public Skill GetSkill(int index) {
    return _skill[index];
}

private void SetupVitalModifiers() {
    //health
    GetVital((int)VitalName.Health).AddModifier(new ModifyingAttribute(GetPrimaryAttribute((int)AttributeName.Constitution), .5f));

    //energy
    GetVital((int)VitalName.Energy).AddModifier(new ModifyingAttribute(GetPrimaryAttribute((int)AttributeName.Constitution), 1));

    //mana
    GetVital((int)VitalName.Mana).AddModifier(new ModifyingAttribute(GetPrimaryAttribute((int)AttributeName.Willpower), 1));
}

private void SetupSkillModifiers() {
    //melee offence
    GetSkill((int)SkillName.Melee_Offence).AddModifier(new ModifyingAttribute(GetPrimaryAttribute((int)AttributeName.Might), .33f));
    GetSkill((int)SkillName.Melee_Offence).AddModifier(new ModifyingAttribute(GetPrimaryAttribute((int)AttributeName.Nimbleness), .33f));
    //melee defence
    GetSkill((int)SkillName.Melee_Defence).AddModifier(new ModifyingAttribute(GetPrimaryAttribute((int)AttributeName.Speed), .33f));
    GetSkill((int)SkillName.Melee_Defence).AddModifier(new ModifyingAttribute(GetPrimaryAttribute((int)AttributeName.Constitution), .33f));
    //magic offence
    GetSkill((int)SkillName.Magic_Offence).AddModifier(new ModifyingAttribute(GetPrimaryAttribute((int)AttributeName.Concentration), .33f));
    GetSkill((int)SkillName.Magic_Offence).AddModifier(new ModifyingAttribute(GetPrimaryAttribute((int)AttributeName.Willpower), .33f));
    //magic defence
    GetSkill((int)SkillName.Magic_Defence).AddModifier(new ModifyingAttribute(GetPrimaryAttribute((int)AttributeName.Concentration), .33f));
    GetSkill((int)SkillName.Magic_Defence).AddModifier(new ModifyingAttribute(GetPrimaryAttribute((int)AttributeName.Willpower), .33f));
    //ranged offence
    GetSkill((int)SkillName.Ranged_Offence).AddModifier(new ModifyingAttribute(GetPrimaryAttribute((int)AttributeName.Concentration), .33f));
    GetSkill((int)SkillName.Ranged_Offence).AddModifier(new ModifyingAttribute(GetPrimaryAttribute((int)AttributeName.Speed), .33f));
    //ranged defence
    GetSkill((int)SkillName.Ranged_Defence).AddModifier(new ModifyingAttribute(GetPrimaryAttribute((int)AttributeName.Speed), .33f));
    GetSkill((int)SkillName.Ranged_Defence).AddModifier(new ModifyingAttribute(GetPrimaryAttribute((int)AttributeName.Nimbleness), .33f));
}

public void StatUpdate() {
    for(int cnt = 0; cnt < _vital.Length; cnt++)
    _vital[cnt].Update();

    for(int cnt = 0; cnt <_skill.Length; cnt++)
    _skill[cnt].Update();
}

}

errors:

cs0103 'SkillName' does not exist in the current context. cs1502 The best overloaded method match for 'BaseCharacter.GetSkill(int)' has some invalid arguments. cs1503 Argument '#1' cannot convert 'object' expression to type 'int'.

my guess is you spelt SkillName wrong go back to your other script and take a look.
